// what to expect

Go behind the scenes of Wellington’s world-famous film industry with visits to Wētā Workshop, Mount Victoria LOTR filming site and the historic Stansborough Weaving Mill - key contributors to The Lord of the Rings and other Hollywood blockbusters. At Wētā Workshop, dive into the artistry behind iconic films like The Lord of the Rings, The Hobbit, Avatar, and Black Panther. Join a guided tour through the creative heart of the studio, where you’ll see how props, creatures, and costumes are brought to life — and even get hands-on with real film artifacts. Then follow in the footsteps of Frodo and Sam at Mount Victoria, visiting one of the most iconic filming locations from The Fellowship of the Ring—the famous “Get off the road!” scene. Enjoy behind-the-scenes insights and panoramic views over Wellington. Explore the Stansborough Mill, home to 19th-century looms still in use today. Discover how these machines created the legendary fabrics used in LOTR costumes and other fantasy worlds.
